Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
Thermoplastic Foam Processing: Principles and Development includes new topics such as polymer blends and mechanical properties, and addresses factors that affect the critical interaction between polymer and gas in the foaming process, such as polymer plasticization, gas dissolution, phase separation, foaming, and stabilization. It provides a thorough review of thermoplastic foam processing. In the midst of new research for alternative, environmentally friendly foaming and blowing agents, this book provides clear information on the mechanisms and the practical conditions experienced during nucleation and cell growth, and useful tools for the development of innovative physical foaming agent and polymer combinations.
MoreLong description:
As researchers seek replacements for banned, ozone-depleting foaming agents, the authors of Thermoplastic Foam Processing: Principles and Development strive to develop a better understanding of foaming processes and find solutions for day-to-day practice. This book presents the latest research in foam extrusion and physical foaming agents with a strong focus on the interaction of material components in the foaming process.
As part of the Polymeric Foams series and a companion to the volume, Foam Extrusion: Principles and Practice (2000), the book includes new topics such as polymer blends and mechanical properties, and further develops several vital topics appearing in Foam Extrusion, such as extensional rheology and solubility/diffusivity. The text also addresses factors that affect the critical interaction between polymer and gas in the foaming process, such as polymer plasticization, gas dissolution, phase separation, foaming, and stabilization. Written by experts, the book provides clear information on the mechanisms and the practical conditions experienced during nucleation and cell growth.
In the midst of new research for alternative, environmentally friendly foaming agents, Thermoplastic Foam Processing: Principles and Development gives the reader a clear understanding of the current trends in R & D and an up-to-date review of the state of the art in thermoplastic foam processing. This book provides useful tools for the development and validation of innovative physical foaming agent and polymer combinations for current and future research.
Table of Contents:
Solubility and Diffusivity. Rheological Behavior Relevant to Extrusion Foaming. Polymer Blending Technology in Foam Processing. Research on Alternative Blowing Agents. Investigating Foam Processing. Relationship Between Morphology and Mechanical Properties in Thermoplastic Foams.
